Arboviruses (Dengue/Chikungunya)

Arboviruses (Dengue/Chikungunya) specific activities

Currently our arbovirus activities are articulated around two major themes:

Organization of proficiency testing program (PT/EQA)

• Development of customized proficiency testing program
• Development of associated documentation (policies and procedures, safety procedures, reports, certificate of participation and good performance)
• Molecular diagnosis of chikungunya (dried blood spot)
• Molecular diagnosis of dengue (dried blood spot), with possible typing
• Dedicated and secured online multi language interface
• Adaptable number of samples depending on the means and expectations (e.g. dengue typing)
• Reporting at individual level (laboratory) and general (whole laboratory or group of laboratories who participated in the survey)
• Personalized follow-up: technical assistance, recommendation

Technical assistance

• Development and adaptation of diagnosis methodologies and strategies
• Help in adapting or developing SOPs and procedure
• Technical training on molecular biology diagnosis of arboviruses
